Q: Based on this review, would the user recommend this product? === Review: The WindTunnel powered hand tool is just the ticket for my little WindTunnel Air. It works beautifully, with great suction and beater bar activity. It lets me reach small places and clean my small flight of stairs just as well as the WindTunnel cleans the flat surfaces of my house. The only thing I would improve is a means of locking the tool onto the tube end of the vacuum. If you push or pull too hard it disengages, but if you hold on to the connection while you use the power tool, all is well. Answer: A:
(b).

Facebook Denies Giving NSA Direct Access To Its Servers; Microsoft Says It Only Turns Over Info For 'Specific Accounts' The NSA has been thrust into the spotlight this week thanks to reports about their information collection practices in the Guardian and the Washington Post Another day, another shocking report about the extent of the National Security Agency’s reach into the communications of American citizens. On Thursday evening, the Washington Post and the Guardian both reported on a program called PRISM, which allegedly gives the NSA direct access to a host of Internet companies’ servers. Both reports rely on a classified (and rather cheery) 41-slide PowerPoint presentation, “which was apparently used to train intelligence operatives on the capabilities of the program,” according to the Guardian. A slide from the presentation, which puts a $20 million/per year price tag on the data diving, has the alleged dates on which various companies signed on. It claims Microsoft came on board in 2007, followed by Yahoo, Google, Facebook, PalTalk (it’s big in Syria), YouTube, Skype, AOL, and in October 2012, Apple. Many are pointing out that this was a year after the death of Steve Jobs. Twitter is notably absent from the list, as is Snapchat. Phew. In a slide about “what you will receive,” the presentation says it varies by provider but includes email, chat, videos, photos, stored data, VoIP, file transfers, video conferencing, logins, and online social networking details. So yeah, everything. In its report, the Guardian has a statement from Google denying the existence of a “‘back door’ for the government to access private user data.” Following the publication of the reports, many of the listed companies have followed suit, with Apple telling CNBC that it has never heard of PRISM. Facebook released a statement to Forbes from its chief security officer, Joe Sullivan, saying the company doesn’t provide “any government organization with direct access to Facebook servers.” Update: Microsoft also sent a statement to Forbes via a PR firm. Microsoft says it only provides information about “specific accounts or identifiers” and only provides customer data when it “receive(s) a legally binding order or subpoena to do so.” The full statement from Facebook: “Protecting the privacy of our users and their data is a top priority for Facebook. We do not provide any government organization with direct access to Facebook servers. When Facebook is asked for data or information about specific individuals, we carefully scrutinize any such request for compliance with all applicable laws, and provide information only to the extent required by law.” Update: The full statement from Microsoft: “We provide customer data only when we receive a legally binding order or subpoena to do so, and never on a voluntary basis. In addition we only ever comply with orders for requests about specific accounts or identifiers. If the government has a broader voluntary national security program to gather customer data we don’t participate in it.” Meanwhile, lawmakers say “they plan to investigate the National Security Agency’s program that collects phone records of millions of people.” That’s based on the Guardian’s report Wednesday that a FISA court ordered Verizon to turn over a bunch of metadata from all calls made in the U.S. to the NSA. The data collection alleged to be taking place is breath-taking in its scope if true. The Washington Post describes the source of the information as a ” career intelligence officer.” Via the Post: Firsthand experience with these systems, and horror at their capabilities, is what drove a career intelligence officer to provide PowerPoint slides about PRISM and supporting materials to The Washington Post in order to expose what he believes to be a gross intrusion on privacy. “They quite literally can watch your ideas form as you type,” the officer said. I think the official term for that is “creepy.” Marc Ambinder opines in the Week that while the NSA may be hoovering up this data, there are likely some safeguards around the information once stored. He suggests that the NSA doesn’t go looking through it unless “there is a need to search through them for lawful purposes.” What are the most important parts of this text?

Title: FOR MORE THAN JUST FABRICS Review: As a mixed-media artist, there is a great appeal in learning ways to design my own materials that I use in small books, paintings, wall hangings and multi-media collages. Although this book seems aimed at those artists who prefer working with textiles, I have found solid advice on many aspects of relief printing, with stamps made from easy to locate materials, such as erasers, vegetables and self adhesive weatherstrip material. Other methods such as discharge, resist, and silkscreen printing are shown as ways to incorporate your stamped images. There is a wide range of applications of hand-created designs, from clothing, to home decor items, to correspondence to textile and mixed-media art. C & T Publishing gears its books toward quilt and fabric artists, but I believe this book is a valuable resource for any artist desiring to develop their skills in hand printing.

Definition: Given a context passage, generate a question from the passage such that its answer is shortest continous span from the passage. Input: The complex expression patterns observed for many genes are often regulated by distal transcription enhancers. Changes in the nucleotide sequences of enhancers may therefore lead to changes in gene expression, representing a central mechanism by which organisms evolve. With the development of the experimental technique of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), in which discrete regions of the genome bound by specific proteins can be identified, it is now possible to identify transcription factor binding events (putative cis-regulatory elements) in entire genomes. Comparing protein-DNA binding maps allows us, for the first time, to attempt to identify regulatory differences and infer global patterns of change in gene expression across species. Here, we review studies that used genome-wide ChIP to study the evolution of enhancers. The trend is one of high divergence of cis-regulatory elements between species, possibly compensated by extensive creation and loss of regulatory elements and rewiring of their target genes. We speculate on the meaning of the differences observed and discuss that although ChIP experiments identify the biochemical event of protein-DNA interaction, it cannot determine whether the event results in a biological function, and therefore more studies are required to establish the effect of divergence of binding events on species-specific gene expression. Output:
Are human enhancers or promoters evolving faster?

Combine the given two facts to write a concluding fact. Note that there should be some parts of the first and second facts that are not mentioned in this conclusion fact. Your combined fact should be the result of a chain between the two facts. Chains form when two facts connect together to produce a concluding fact. An example of a chain is: "pesticides cause pollution" (fact1) + "pollution can harm animals" (fact2)?? "pesticides can harm animals" (conclusion fact). Parts of the concluding fact overlap with the first and the second fact. To construct such a concluding fact, a useful way is to borrow the subject from one fact and the ending conclusions from another fact. Fact 1: some animals' fur grows thicker for staying warm in the winter. Fact 2: During winter, their hollow fur absorbs much heat as they sun themselves.
hollow fur keeps animals warm.
In this task you are expected to provide an SQL statement from an english description of what that SQL statement does. The description may include multiple steps but you should only ouput one SQL statement that accomplishes every step. An SQL query works by selecting data from a table where certain conditions apply. A table contains columns where every row in that table must have a value for each column. Every table has a primary key that uniquely identifies each row, usually an id. To choose which columns are returned you specify that after the "SELECT" statement. Next, you use a "FROM" statement to specify what tables you want to select the data from. When you specify a table you can rename it with the "AS" statement. You can reference that table by whatever name follows the "AS" statement. If you want to select data from multiple tables you need to use the "JOIN" statement. This will join the tables together by pairing a row in one table with every row in the other table (Cartesian Product). To limit the number of rows returned you should use the "ON" statement. This will only return rows where the condition specified after the statement is true, this is usually an equals operator with primary keys. You can also use the "WHERE" statement to specify that only rows with column values statisfying a certain condition, should be returned. The "GROUP BY" statement will group rows together that have equal column values for whatever columns follows the statement. The "HAVING" statement will return groups that statisfy whatever condition follows the statement. Any column(s) being returned from grouped rows must either be an aggregate function, (AVG, MAX, COUNT, SUM,...) of a column, or the column(s) that the data was grouped by. To sort the returned data you can use the "ORDER BY" command which will order the data by whatever aggregate function or column follows the statement. The "DESC" statement will sort in descending order and the "ASC" statement will sort in ascending order. Finally, you can use the "LIMIT" statement to return a certain number of rows. When "*" is used in an SQL statement every column is returned. For example, SELECT * FROM table WHERE attribute = 1, will select every column from rows with the attribute column equal to 1. Step 1: For each row in Customer table, find the corresponding rows in Invoice table. Step 2: find FirstName of the results of step 1 whose BillingCountry equals Germany. Step 3: find FirstName of the results of step 1 whose BillingCountry equals Brazil. Step 4: show the rows that are in both the results of step 2 and the results of step 3
SELECT T1.FirstName FROM Customer AS T1 JOIN Invoice AS T2 ON T1.CustomerId = T2.CustomerId WHERE T2.BillingCountry = "Germany" INTERSECT SELECT T1.FirstName FROM Customer AS T1 JOIN Invoice AS T2 ON T1.CustomerId = T2.CustomerId WHERE T2.BillingCountry = "Brazil"

Question: Who runs with Cho-won? Movie title: Marathon Movie plot: A young man with autism, named Cho-won, finds release only in running. As a child, Cho-won regularly threw tantrums, bit himself, and refused to communicate with othersâ?? finding solace only in zebras and the Korean snack, choco pie. His mother never gave up on him and was determined to prove to the world that her child can be normal. As Cho-won gets older, he begins to find a passion for running and his mother is there to encourage and support him. Even though their family suffers from financial difficulties, they find a former marathon champion, Jung-wook â?? now a lethargic older man with an alcohol problem. Jung-wook, who is serving community service hours as a physical education teacher for a DUI, grudgingly accepts the offer to train Cho-won in marathon running, but eventually becomes lazy with him. The coach often takes Cho-won's snack, and takes Cho-won to a jjimjilbang to relax. Even though Jung-wook slacks off most of the time, Cho-won's determination for running is firm (he accidentally runs 100 laps around a soccer field when the coach told him to without literally meaning it). He takes third place in a 10?? km running race, which causes his mother to set another goal for her son: to run a full marathon under three hours. This is not an easy task, however, as Cho-won wants to win but doesnâ?? t know how to pace himself. Therefore, his mother pleads the coach to run with Cho-won in order to teach him how to pace his running. The movie shows the emotional struggles of a mother who is not sure if she is forcing her son to run or if it truly is his passion. The movie further explores and shows deep love and genuine purity through Cho-won. The answer is:

Title: Eerie 9/11 Prequel Product review: Eerily, this 9/11 prequel addresses Muslim terrorism by getting into the head of a fanatic. The premise and events are all fairly convincing and thought provoking, and clearly timely. The lack of cooperation between the FBI and CIA was almost right on target and quite chilling. But I can (and did) get enough of John Corey and his inane wisecracking. Sarcasm being the lowest level of wit, the main character has clearly mastered that art, it becomes repetitious and annoying. I would also say that Mr. DeMille does a better job of getting into the head of a radical muslim fundamentalist than he does getting into the head of a woman, the Kate character was so cardboard there was absolutely no dimension or believability to her while the Khalil character was so well etched. All in all, this audio book was very well read, and much more exciting than the telly when stuck at home with the crud. Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light? Answer:

In this task, you're given an article and an answer. Your task is to generate the question for the answer based on the given article. Article: IMAGINE if, to collect your salary each month, you had to walk to the nearest town, perhaps tens of miles away, to gather in a school or a football court or a church. There, you and your colleagues wait for a man to arrive from the capital, perhaps a thousand miles away, with a suitcase of cash. Few countries are as corrupt as Congo. Mobutu Sese Seko, a former strongman, used state funds to _ a Concorde to take him on shopping trips to Paris. By the time of his overthrow in 1997, graft was endemic. Government employees were not paid but rather expected to use their positions to make a living. Among the most prized government jobs was that of accountant: the people responsible for transporting bags of cash to the provinces to hand out to employees. In 2012, however, the Congolese government started helping civil servants to open bank accounts. Around three-quarters of them--some 670,000 people--now have one. In the process, the government has weeded out tens of thousands of ghost employees, since the embezzlers who invented them could not open accounts in their names without a matching ID. Yet in a vast country with fewer roads than Luxembourg, hardly anyone lives anywhere near a bank branch. So Congolese banks must now do the work the government accountants used to: shipping money to the remote area. Cash has to be transported to branches in regional capitals, and thence to account-holders on the backs of motorbikes, in canoes or by foot. Bank staff with suitcases of cash make easy targets, just as they did in the west of America in the 19th century. Though they usually travel with armed policemen, there have been at least ten armed robberies of bank employees since January. At the moment banks are little more than money-transfer companies, and not very sophisticated ones at that. The transfers tend to go only one way--out of Kinshasa--so cannot be netted against each other; instead cash almost always has to be moved physically. Therefore, most Congolese bankers hope that the new system will promote the growth of a proper banking system. Answer: By benefiting from their positions
How did government employees use to earn a living?
